Antique Heriz Wool Rug - C. 1910-1930 - 3'3" X 9'10"
Burnished by time and imbued with history, our unrivaled collection of vintage and antique rugs has been curated with an artist's eye for uncommon beauty, character, quality and provenance. Crafted by generations of nomadic weavers, villagers and historic workshops, each rug is made by hand and tells a unique story of a place and a people, expressing their craft in one-of-a-kind creations. From the royal carpets of Agra to masterful French Aubussons, the jewel motifs of classical Persians to the geometry of Turkish Oushaks, our singular rugs represent the world's finest rug-making traditions.
Heriz rugs, woven in Northwest Persia, have been produced for centuries in village workshops known for their masterful craftsmanship. These rugs feature bold, geometric interpretations of classical Persian medallions, reflecting the region's fusion of tribal and urban weaving traditions. Distinguished by their durable, heavy wool and firm, resilient weave, Heriz rugs are exceptionally long lasting.
